I’ve been toying around with recipes A LOT lately, and I haven’t been sharing too much because I am trying to write a book. The basis for the book is that it’s full of healthy, EASY things to make that can cater to a family, as well as an individual, and really goes along with the lifestyle of a weight loss surgery patient. (Low carb, lots of protein, and easy to portion out!) The book will be low on “extra” carbs, high on protein, and again, super easy things you can make for your whole family.

Well, my husband and I travel to Cleveland, which is about 5 hours from Indianapolis, probably 6 times per year. During the holidays, we usually make a trip in November AND December, so that ends up being almost 20 hours total in the car within the course of a month! Forever ago, Brett and I created a playlist called The Agreement on Spotify. It was basically a playlist of around 40 songs that we could agree on. We have some similar tastes in music, but also some SERIOUS differences. We have played…
